Committees Have Advisory Role
The role of members of Academic and Administrative Committees of the Advisory Council of the University System of Georgia is defined in the Bylaws of the Council as follows
The duty of each member of an Academic or Administrative committee is to represent the position of his institution He is expected therefore to confer with colleagues and appropriate officials at his home institution concerning issues to be brought before the Committee
It should be recognized however that the vote of the institutional representative does not commit the institution since all reports actions or recommendations of Committees are advisory in nature only and must ultimately be considered by the Advisory Council where the President of each institution alone is empowered to vote officially on the position of his institution
Should more than one member from an institution attend a meeting of a standing Academic or Administrative committee only one member shall represent the institution on any matter requiring a vote

The System Summary
f
IMPROVEMENT AHEAD OF NEWNESS CHANCELLOR DECLARES
Chancellor George L Simpson Jr of the University System of Georgia issued a statement on the 197374 Fiscal Year state appropriation to the System as follows
The funds provided in the University System for Fiscal 1974 197374 by the Legislature contain a substantial increase of more than 51000000
Such support is worth the notice of faculty administrative officers and all others in the University System It indicates the serious intention of the people of the State to support a good system of public higher education It indicates some confidence in the current situation It also indicates an expectation of continued progress
This increase goes beyond the minimum funds to accommodate projected growth at the Fiscal 1973 197273 level The basic instructional budget has been raised to nearly full formula funding restoring the five percent cut of the current year a five percent pay raise plus fringe benefit improvements in retirement disability and insurance are included there are additional funds for large rehabilitation projects and land purchase there are increases in all special budget areas notably in agriculture and medicine new construction funds are provided at about the 20000000 level
The presidents are under instructions to use these funds prudently more for improvement than for new programs and activities We are beginning to leave the period of great growth in the University System we have moved in recent years to meet the programs of a large dispersed System
of more than 100000 students We have made significant advances in quality with much in motion that will further increase the quality of our work
We are engaged in two major efforts that may appear contradictory With the advent of mass higher education we are confronted with the necessity to teach fundamentals to bring thousands of students into the mainstream of college education On the other hand we are moving into the highest level of teaching and scholarship in graduate training research in high quality baccalaureate degree holders It is to these two efforts that instruction funds must apply especially
New Center Authorized
The establishment of a Health Professions Education Center at Georgia College was approved by the Board of Regents at the March 14 meeting
The Center primarily will strengthen the organization and promote the growth of programs in health professions education at the College It will also facilitate cooperation and collaboration among the College and health facilities and health agencies in the area surrounding the College
The Center will offer the Colleges existing associate and baccalaureate degree programs in the health sciences and related fields
Employees Gaining in Pay Retirement Insurance
Additional benefits to academicand nonacademic employees of the University System in 197374 as provided for in the annual state appropriation for that year fall into three major categories increased salaries improved retirement benefits and increased Systempaid health and life insurance
The 13549000 additional spending required to finance this package represents 26 percent of the total increase of 51388164 in state appropriation for the 197374 Fiscal Year
Salary increases averaging five percent will require 10205000
In accordance with the policy on pay raises that has been followed by the Board of Regents for many years these increases will be based on merit in the case of each individual employee as determined by institutional recommendations
Improved retirement benefits will require 650000
This amount will finance reductions of the periods required for employees covered by the State Teachers Retirement System to vest their rights to service retirement benefits and death and disability benefits
Legislation authorizing the reductions in vesting periods was passed by the 1973 session of the General Assembly The period required for
vesting rights to service retirement benefits was reduced from 20 years to 10 years The period required for vesting rights to death and disability retirement benefits was reduced from 15 years to 10 years
The Board of Regents made concerted efforts during the last two years in support of the legislation to reduce the vesting periods
Increased Systempaid health and life insurance will require 2694000 This money was requested to increase the amount paid by the University System through the institutions on employees health and life insurance premiums under group coverage
By current projections the University System contributions in 197374 would increase to approximately 14 per month per employee for health insurance coverage from the present 3 per month
Also by current projections the University System contributions in 197374 would provide full payment of the premiums for life insurance coverage of various amounts depending upon salary in each case up to 15000 per employee The University System presently pays 60 cents per 1000 of coverage or approximately twothirds of the premiums for coverage up to 15000 per employee

New Book The University System of Georgia
The 1973 edition of the book The University System of GeorgiaThe StateOperated Universities and Colleges will be published by the University System in April The System Summary is reprinting portions of the general information section of the publication beginning with the installment that follows
The University System of Georgia includes all stateoperated universities senior colleges and junior colleges in Georgia
The System now in its fifth decade of operation offers programs of instruction research and public service designed to benefit the entire population of the state These programs are conducted through the various institutions and institutionrelated agencies
The University System is governed by a 15member constitutional Board of Regents which is the policymaking body for the entire System The Chancellor of the University System is the chief executive officer of the Board of Regents and the chief administrative officer of the System
The University System evolved from an assortment of statesupported institutions each of which was governed by a separate board of trustees These institutions were brought under the governance of one body the Board of Regents by the Reorganization Act of 1931 and became the University System This Act which became effective on January 1 1932 authorized an overall reorganization of state government
The composition of the University System has changed several times since the System was established in 1932 The 26 institutions in existence in 1932 were studied to determine their academic strength Subsequently some of these institutions were closed and others were consolidated in order to establish an effective and viable system of public higher education Even with the improved structure the University System in existence during the years immediately following reorganization had little in common with the University System in existence during the 197273 Academic Year The changes that produced the present characteristics are attributable to a great extent to the tremendous growth and development of the instructional research and public service activities at the universities and colleges throughout the System since the early 1960s
INSTRUCTION
In the 196263 Academic Year the University System included 19 institutions three universities nine senior colleges and seven junior colleges
The three universities offered programs through the doctoral level
The nine senior colleges offered programs through the baccalaureate level and four of them also offered graduate programs at the masters level
The seven junior colleges offered programs leading to
twoyear degrees and twoyear and oneyear certificates
In the 197273 Academic Year the System includes 28 institutions four universities 12 senior colleges and 12 junior colleges These institutions are both individually distinctive and mutually dependent and interrelated They are geographically dispersed so that approximately 96 percent of the people of Georgia reside within 35 miles of at least one university or college
All of the four universities offer programs leading to degrees from the baccalaureate level through the doctoral level Some of the universities also offer programs leading to twoyear associate degrees
All of the 12 senior colleges offer programs leading to baccalaureate degrees eight of these institutions also offer graduate programs with four offering both Specialist in Education and masters degree programs and four offering only masters degree programs Some of the senior colleges also offer programs leading to twoyear associate degrees
The 12 junior colleges offer programs leading to twoyear associate degrees some of these institutions also award twoyear and oneyear career certificates
During the spring of 1973 two authorized future junior colleges were under construction Five other authorized future junior colleges in the spring of 1973 included one in the early planning stage and four being held in the preplanning stage pending commitment of local financing All of these future units of the University System were authorized by the Board of Regents to fill needs determined through extensive study
Major Roles of Universities
The universities of the University System are the Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta the Georgia State University Atlanta the Medical College of Georgia Augusta and the University of Georgia Athens
One of the primary functions of the universities is to provide opportunities for students graduating from senior colleges to pursue work toward doctorates and other advanced degrees The universities also provide a wide variety of resources for use by all segments of education including other institutions of higher education and by business industry and other segments of society
These four institutions offer the majority of doctoral and other advanced degree programs available in the System They also conduct the majority of the research and statewide public service programs of the University System
Each of these institutions offers a number of degree programs particularly Doctor of Philosophy degree programs and professional and masters degree programs which are not offered elsewhere in the System Examples of such programs are aerospace engineering geophysical sciences and nuclear engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology actuarial science land economics and urban affairs and health administration at the Georgia State University medicine dentistry and graduatelevel nursing at the Medical

The System Summary
College of Georgia and ecology law pharmacy and veterinary medicine at the University of Georgia
The Georgia Institute of Technology also operates a fouryear division Southern Technical Institute in Marietta Southern Technical Institute offers programs leading to baccalaureate and associate degrees in engineering technology and an associate degree in fire science technology The associate degree programs offered in engineering technology prepare students to begin employment in their respective fields upon completion of the twoyear programs or to continue their education in the institutions baccalaureate degree programs in engineering technology The associate degree program in fire science technology prepares students to begin employment upon graduation
Major Roles of Senior Colleges
The senior colleges of the University System which offer graduate degree programs below the doctoral level in addition to offering undergraduate degree programs are Armstrong State College Savannah Augusta College Augusta Fort Valley State College Fort Valley Georgia College Milledgeville Georgia Southern College Statesboro Savannah State College Savannah Valdosta State College Valdosta and West Georgia College Carrollton Two other senior collegesColumbus College Columbus and Georgia Southwestern College Americus have been authorized to begin offering graduate work in the 1973 summer quarter
The other senior colleges of the System which offer undergraduate degree programs are Albany State College Albany and North Georgia College Dahlonega
All of the senior colleges are fundamentally liberal arts institutions however some of their programs also permit specialization outside the traditional liberal arts curricula In all of these institutions students may receive a fouryear liberal arts education that will prepare them to enter professional schools or graduate schools or to go immediately into employment in business industry government and many other fields
The primary role of the senior colleges continues to be to provide a fouryear education for the rapidly increasing numbers of students seeking baccalaureate degrees A large percentage of college students in Georgia still seek a fouryear liberal arts education as the main objective of their college education or as preparation for subsequent specialization
The student bodies of the senior colleges include in addition to the large numbers of students who enter as freshmen an increasing number of students who transfer from other University System institutions particularly from junior colleges The expansion of the senior colleges and the continued improvement in the quality of their academic programs help to make possible the orderly and rapid growth of the junior colleges by ensuring that ample opportunities exist for junior college graduates to continue their education in baccalaureate degree programs
The expansions and improvements at the senior colleges also have enabled these institutions to accommodate large
numbers of students who otherwise would have been dependent upon the universities for undergraduate education This has helped the universities to devote an increasing percentage of their resources to graduate work research and public service
Major Roles of Junior Colleges
The junior colleges in the University System are Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College Tifton Albany Junior College Albany Brunswick Junior College Brunswick Clayton Junior College Morrow Dalton Junior College Dalton Floyd Junior College Rome Gainesville Junior College Gainesville Gordon Junior College Barnesville Kxnnesaw Junior College Marietta Macon Junior College Macon Middle Georgia College Cochran and South Georgia College Douglas
The two authorized future junior colleges of the University System that are under construction with openings scheduled for the 1973 fall quarter are Bainbridge Junior College Bainbridge and Emanuel County Junior College Swainsboro
The junior colleges offer twoyear college transfer and career programs leading to associate degrees and twoyear and oneyear career programs leading to certificates
The college transfer associate degree programs are designed for students who plan to continue their education at senior colleges professional schools and universities upon graduation from junior colleges
The career associate degree programs are designed to prepare students to begin employment immediately upon graduation from junior colleges they also offer opportunities for inservice workers to obtain degrees while continuing fulltime or parttime employment These programs are offered in such fields as agricultural equipment technology criminal justice dental hygiene nursing and secretarial science
The career programs for which twoyear and oneyear certificates are awarded also are designed to allow students to begin employment upon completion of their junior college courses or to obtain college education while continuing employment
Some of the junior colleges in recent years have added to their traditional career programs a number of vocationaltechnical career programs
In the 1973 spring quarter six junior colleges offered career associate degree programs in cooperation with nearby area vocationaltechnical schools under special agreements with those schools These programs offered study in such fields as electronic technology drafting and design technology and secretarial science
In addition Brunswick Junior College has established a vocationaltechnical division in order to provide vocationaltechnical education to a section of the state where there is no area vocationaltechnical school This division was implemented through cooperation between the University System and the State Department of Education and plans

are under way to implement additional vocationaltechnical divisions at University System junior colleges in other sections of the state not served by an area vocationaltechnical school
Enrollment
The number of students enrolled in University System institutions has tripled during the last decadefrom 35277 students in the 1962 fall quarter to 105892 students in the 1972 fall quarter Growth in enrollment is expected to continue Projections indicate that 120000125000 students will be enrolled in the 1975 fall quarter
Eightythree percent of the enrollment increase during the last decade occurred at institutions which were in operation prior to the 1962 fall quarter The remaining portion of the growth occurred at nine junior colleges opened since the 1962 fall quarter
The fact that such a large percentage increase in enrollment has occurred at the older institutions is in keeping with the fact that larger percentage increases in enrollment have been recorded at the graduate and professional levels during the last ten years than have been recorded at the baccalaureate and associate degree levels While total System enrollment tripled during the period from the 1962 fall quarter to the 1972 fall quarter total enrollment in graduate and professional programs increased approximately tenfold during that time

Division and Resident Center
The establishment of a VocationalTechnical Education Division at Dalton Junior College the establishment of a North Georgia College Resident Center at Jasper and the redesignation of a degree program at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College were authorized by the Board of Regents at the April 1011 meeting
VocationalTechnical Education Division
Dalton Junior College received approval to establish a VocationalTechnical Education Division effective on May 1 1973
This Division is expected to begin offering in the 1973 fall quarter programs similar to the vocationaltechnical programs presently being offered at Brunswick Junior College the Regents were told
The Brunswick Junior College programs were the first vocationaltechnical programs instituted at a University System junior college through expanded cooperation between the University System and the State Department of Education which exercises primary responsibility for vocationaltechnical education in Georgia The Brunswick vocationaltechnical programs were implemented in the 1972 winter quarter under a plan whereby the Department of Education pays most of the personnel cost of duly approved vocationaltechnical programs and provides all equipment necessary for conducting the programs This plan was approved in principle by the Board of Regents in December 1971 and was set forth in a formal agreement subsequently approved by the Board of Regents and the State Board for Vocational Education
The expanded cooperation between the University System and the State Department of Education was initiated in a 1971 agreement between the Board of Regents and the State Board of EducationState Board for Vocational Education That agreement in particular called for special cooperation between the University System and the State Department of Education in communities such as Dalton and Brunswick which have a junior college but no area vocationaltechnical school or in communities which have an area vocationaltechnical school but no junior college The 1971 agreement also called for expansion of joint programs at neighboring junior colleges and area vocationaltechnical schools and for extensive study of means to facilitate and maximize the transfer of credit between junior colleges and area vocationaltechnical schools
North Georgia College Resident Center
North Georgia College was authorized to establish a Resident Center at Jasper for the purpose of offering associate degree programs in cooperation with the Pickens County Area VocationalTechnical School

Practically all course credits earned under the programs will be applicable toward baccalaureate degrees at North Georgia College Southern Technical Institute or other University System institutions the Regents were told
The ten North Georgia counties served by the Pickens j County Area VocationalTechnical School cover an area which for the most part is not within convenient commuting range of any unit of the University System according to the request for the Regents action Therefore North Georgia College is in a better position to meet the higher education needs of the Pickens County area than is any other unit of the University System the Regents were told
Plans for the establishment of the Resident Center were developed with the cooperation of a representative of the State Department of Education and the establishment of such a Center was strongly endorsed by the Board of Trustees of the Pickens County Area VocationalTechnical School the Regents were told
Redesignation of Degree Program
Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College received approval to redesignate the Associate in Agricultural Equipment Technology degree program to an Associate in Agricultural and Industrial Equipment Technology degree program effective in the 1973 summer quarter

The System Summary
1973 EDITION OF BOOK The University System of Georgia
The generalinformation section of the 1973 edition of the book The University System of GeorgiaThe StateOperated Universities and Colleges published in April is being reprinted in installments by The System Summary The portion reprinted in this April issue is the second installment
Academic Development
The academic development of University System universities senior colleges and junior colleges during the last decade has paralleled the growth in enrollment at these institutions during the same period This development can be seen in the increase in the number of degree programs offered by the institutions
FROM PRECEDING INSTALLMENT
The number of students enrolled in University System institutions has tripled during the last decadefrom 35277 students in the 1962 fall quarter to 105892 students in the 1972 fall quarter Growth in enrollment is expected to continue Projections indicate that 120000125000 students will be enrolled in the 1975 fall quarter
Eightythree percent of the enrollment increase during the last decade occurred at institutions which were in operation prior to the 1962 fall quarter The remaining portion of the growth occurred at nine junior colleges opened since the 1962 fall quarter
The fact that such a large percentage increase in enrollment has occurred at the older institutions is in keeping with the fact that larger percentage increases in enrollment have been recorded at the graduate and professional levels during the last ten years than have been recorded at the baccalaureate and associate degree levels While total System enrollment tripled during the period from the 1962 fall quarter to the 1972 fall quarter total enrollment in graduate and professional programs increased approximately tenfold during that time
Since the 196263 Academic Year 606 new academic programs including new degrees and new majors under existing degrees have been authorized for University System institutions by the Board of Regents
Approximately 85 percent of the new programs were authorized for the 19 institutions that were in operation prior to 1962 The additional academic offerings for these 1 institutions include the junior and senior years of work at four former junior colleges that have been converted to senior colleges since 1962 the predoctoral graduate programs added at several senior colleges since 1962 the doctoral programs implemented at one university since 1962 and the programs added for new departments divisions schools and colleges which have been established within several institutions since 1962
This increase in the academic offerings was experienced at all educational levels Of the total number of new academic programs authorized during the period from Sep
tember 1962 through March 1973 approximately 36 percent are graduate or professional degree programs 41 percent are baccalaureate degree programs and 23 percent are associate degree programs
In addition new areas of concentration within existing major fields of study were implemented to expand the scope of majors offered at the various institutions
The academic programs implemented during the last decade include not only traditional liberal arts programs but also programs designed to meet increasing demands for educational offerings in specialized areas such as teacher education health care education and twoyear career education
The teacher education program has been expanded during the last ten years at both undergraduate and graduate levels During the last few years the primary emphasis of the expansion of teacher education programs has been at the graduate level Ninetyseven new graduatelevel programs in Education were authorized for universities and senior colleges between 196263 and 197273 These programs will assist Georgias teachers in complying with a regulation concerning the education requirements for public school elementary and secondary teachers This regulation adopted by the Georgia State Board of Education to become effective in 1974 requires that a teacher have basic qualifications as follows masters degree based on an approved program and three years of teaching experience for Career Professional Certificate DT5 masters degree based on an approved program with less than three years of teaching experience for Professional Certificate T5 and bachelors degree based on an approved program for Associate Professional Certificate T4 which must be extended or renewed with a minimum of ten quarter hours of senior college or graduate credit
In addition to implementing graduate programs in Education at the various institutions the University System established Regional Education Centers on the campuses of six institutions These Centers are designed primarily to benefit inservice elementary and secondary school teachers however they are utilized substantially in undergraduate teacher education programs They offer both a full daytime schedule of collegecredit work in the field of Education and evening and Saturday schedules of collegecredit and noncredit work in Education
The health care education program of the University System has been expanded during the last decade through the expansion of the School of Medicine and the establishment of a School of Dentistry at the Medical College of Georgia through the establishment of nursing programs at many institutions and through the establishment of programs in the allied health sciences at several institutions
The School of Medicine at the Medical College of Georgia has grown by approximately 55 percent in total enrollment since the 196263 Academic Year Enrollment in the firstyear class in medicine increased from 100 students in the 1962 fall quarter to 161 students in the 1972 fall quarter and is projected to be increased to 200 students in the 1976 fall quarter

1973 Edition Continuedfrom Page 19
Other means by which the Medical College could continue to increase its capacity for graduating physicians also were studied and implemented in pilot programs during the last decade Included was a program designed to enable medical students to graduate after three calendar years of study
The School of Dentistry was implemented at the Medical College in the fall quarter of 1969 with an entering class of 24 students The entering class of dental students was increased to 56 students for the 1972 fall quarter and is projected to increase to 72 students on a schedule to be determined
In addition to increasing enrollment the School of Dentistry inaugurated a threeyear curriculum in the 1971 fall quarter to permit dental students to graduate after three calendar years of study
The number of nursing programs within the University System increased sevenfold during the period from 196263 to 197273 and enrollment in nursing programs in the System increased more than twelvefold during the same period
In the 196263 Academic Year there were three nursing programs in operation within the University System two baccalaureate degree programs and one threeyear program Approximately 200 students were enrolled in the nursing programs for the 1962 fall quarter In the 197273 Academic Year there are 21 nursing programs in operation at 18 University System institutions one masters degree program five bachelors degree programs and 15 associate degree programs Approximately 2500 students were enrolled in the nursing programs for the 1972 fall quarter the beginning of the 197273 Academic Year
The sharp increase in the number of nursing programs as well as in the enrollment in these programs was made possible in part by a 1966 amendment to the Georgia law pertaining to licensure of nurses The amendment passed upon recommendation of the Board of Regents permits graduates of twoyear associate degree programs to become Registered Nurses upon passing the state examination
Allied health sciences programs also have been increased sharply in recent years Since the 196263 Academic Year
34 new degree programs in the allied health sciences have been authorized for University System institutions These new programs have expanded educational opportunities ir such fields as dental hygiene medical illustration medical record administration medical technology occupational therapy physical therapy physician assistants radiologic technology and respiratory therapy
To expand further the University System offerings in health care education the Board of Regents in the summer of 197 authorized the establishment of Regional Health Professions Education Centers These Centers are to be implemented at a number of places to facilitate the development of nursing and allied health sciences programs Each of the Centers which will have access to substantial clinical facilities is to be established through the cooperation of two or more institutions The Centers will be particularly important in providing clinical experiences when institutions participating in the Centers do not have adequate hospital or other medical facilities available in their respective communities to offer such experiences
The twoyear career education offerings were expanded substantially throughout the junior colleges as well as at several of the senior colleges and at some universities during the last decade
In the 1973 spring quarter 145 such career programs were available at University System institutions Approximately 65 percent of these programs were offered by junior colleges
In addition to the twoyear career degree and certificate programs 30 oneyear career programs leading to a certificate of completion were offered by University System institutions during the 1973 spring quarter
These twoyear and oneyear career education programs have grown in popularity among preservice students who wish to seek immediate employment upon completion of the prescribed period of study and among inservice personnel who wish to pursue a college education while employed
The curricula of twoyear career programs are designed to provide students with approximately one year of general education and one year of concentrated education and train

The System Summary
ing in a specialized field Many of the courses completed under some twoyear career programs are applicable toward baccalaureate degrees at University System institutions if students desire to continue their education beyond junior college Special advance academic counseling pertaining to the extent of applicability of career program credits toward baccalaureate degrees is advised
The curricula of oneyear career programs are designed to include a limited number of general education courses with the majority of the courses providing specialized training in specific fields Most of the courses pursued under oneyear programs are not applicable toward baccalaureate degree programs
Career education programs authorized since September 1962 include new offerings in such fields as criminal justice data processing dental hygiene engineering technology food technology health facilities management physician assistants recreation and teacher assistants
Admission of Students
All institutions of the University System operate on the quarter system on a yearround basis
Each of the institutions admits students from the freshman level through the highest level at which its programs are offered At the Medical College of Georgia freshmen are admitted only to the baccalaureate degree program in nursing and the baccalaureate degree associate degree and twoyear certificate programs in radiologic technology Students pursuing other degree objectives at this institution must have at least two years of collegemore in some fieldsbefore being admitted
Admission and other matters pertaining to students are handled by the institutions within the framework of policies ol the Board of Regents All of these matters are administered in accordance with the Boards commitment to provide college education for all Georgians who desire it and can succeed in it
I he objective of the admission program of each institution is to admit all applicants who have a reasonable possibility ot success Applications are filed with the individual institutions
ll applicants to the freshman class as regular students ol any institution are required to take the Scholastic Aptitude T t of the College Entrance Examination Board Freshman applicants to a few of the institutions are also required to take one or more Achievement Tests of the College Entrance Examination Board
pedal procedures apply for transfer graduate and other categories of applicants
pecific requirements for admission and procedures for admission for all categories of applicants are stated in the catalogs of the institutions
Special Admission Programs
he University System institutions not only are committed to provide all Georgians with opportunities to receive a cole education but they are committed to provide persons
whose academic achievements have been either substantially above or below the norm with special opportunities to seek a college education Such opportunities are provided by the Early Admission and Joint Enrollment programs for students whose academic achievements have well exceeded those normally required for admission to collegecredit work and the Trial Admission and Developmental programs for students whose academic achievements have not met minimum requirements for admission to collegecredit work
All University System institutions except the Medical College of Georgia offer at least one of these four special admission programs The Medical College of Georgia offers a special educational assistance program in its School of Nursing
Both the Early Admission program and the Joint Enrollment program enable qualified students to enroll in college courses for credit before completing the full high school program These programs are open to students with outstanding academic abilities who have completed the eleventh grade
Under the typical Early Admission program qualified students who have completed the eleventh grade may enroll in a full program of collegecredit courses at the beginning of the summer quarter or fall quarter foregoing the twelfth grade
Under the typical Joint Enrollment program qualified students may enroll in a full program of collegecredit courses during the summer quarter before entering the twelfth grade andor they may enroll in one or more collegecredit courses while they complete the twelfth grade
Requirements for participation in either the Early Admission program or the Joint Enrollment program are very high Qualification is normally determined by students high school averages college entrance examination scores recommendations from high school officials and in some cases achievement test scores Specific requirements for participation in an Early Admission program or a Joint Enrollment program vary at the individual institutions
Both the Trial Admission program and the Developmental program provide students who do not meet the normal academic requirements for admission to college with opportunities to prepare further for collegelevel work
Under the typical Trial Admission program students requiring preparatory work are enrolled for a quarter of collegecredit courses upon the successful completion of these courses they are admitted to institutions on a regular basis Some Trial Admission programs also include noncredit preparatory work in the fields of English and mathematics Trial Admission programs are available at some institutions only during certain specified quarters these programs are available at other institutions during any of the four quarters
Under the typical Developmental program students who indicate academic deficiencies in the basic communicative and analytical skills are enrolled in noncredit courses in the fields of English and mathematics prior to being enrolled in collegecredit courses in these areas Such developmental courses offer individualized instruction which is designed

1973 Edition Continued from Page 21
to prepare students for collegelevel work Some students may pursue a full program of developmental courses during their first quarter and subsequently enroll in a program made up entirely of collegecredit courses or of some collegecredit courses and some additional developmental courses Other students may enroll in a combined program of developmental courses and collegecredit courses beginning in their first quarter
Students may according to regulations of their institutions be required or only advised to complete developmental courses prior to being admitted to collegecredit courses
The need for enrollment in a Trial Admission program or a Developmental program is determined by students high school averages college entrance examination scores and in some cases achievement test scores Specific determinants for enrollment in a Trial Admission program or a Developmental program vary at the individual universities and colleges
Accelerated Learning Programs
The University System institutions are committed to provide students with opportunities to receive within their chosen curricula the most advanced education that they are capable of attaining Such opportunities are provided to qualified undergraduate students through various types of accelerated learning programs including Advanced Placement programs CreditbyExamination programs and Honors programs
Advanced Placement programs typically allow students who are entering college directly from high school to exempt freshman courses on the basis of scores on examinations of the Advanced Placement Program of the College Entrance Examination Board or on the basis of scores on achievement examinations administered by the college Students who qualify for advanced placement may or may not receive college credit for exempted courses according to the policies of their respective institutions
CreditbyExamination programs allow entering or matriculated students to exempt courses with full credit on the basis of scores on examinations of the College Level Examination Program of the College Entrance Examination Board or on the basis of scores on comprehensive institutional examinations covering the subject matter of particular courses CreditbyExamination programs are particularly utilized to accelerate students who have received a certain degree of collegelevel education through military service or other nontraditional means
Honors programs allow entering or matriculated students to pursue advanced courses in certain subject areas Such advanced or honors courses require much independent study and research they are normally pursued under the guidance of an academic adviser Honors courses carry the same number of quarter hours of credit as do regular college courses however they allow students to study subjects in greater depth than do regular college courses Qualification to pursue Honors programs is normally determined by stu
dents high school averages college entrance examination scores and in some cases achievement test scores
Systemwide Core Curriculum For Freshman and Sophmore Courses
The Core Curriculum was approved by the Board of Regents and adopted Systemwide in 1967 in order to facilitate the transfer of credits among institutions within the University System This Curriculum establishes basic programs of a minimum of 90 quarter hours of credit constituting the freshman and sophomore years of work
All freshman and sophomore credit earned under the Core Curriculum at any institution in the System is transferable to any other institution in the System upon acceptance of a transferring student
The adoption of the Core Curriculum greatly facilitated the transfer of credits earned under college transfer associate degree programs at junior colleges within the System to baccalaureate degree programs at senior colleges and universities within the System
The Core Curriculum requirement of 90 quarter hours of collegecredit work stipulates that this work include 20 quarter hours in the humanities 20 quarter hours in mathematics and natural sciences 20 quarter hours in social sciences and 30 quarter hours in courses appropriate to the major field of the student
Each institution has a considerable degree of flexibility in designating the specific courses that will satisfy requirements for the total of 60 quarter hours in the categories of humanities mathematics and natural sciences and social sciences Academic committees composed of representatives of all institutions in the System and representing the major academic fields of concentration have designated the courses or areas of concentration applicable to the 30 quarter hours in the major fields

RESEARCH
The annual volume of expenditures for research within the University System increased 275 percent during the last decade to more than 417 million in the 197172 Fiscal Year that ended on June 30 1972
The research within the System is conducted primarily by the four universities Georgia Institute of Technology Georgia State University Medical College of Georgia and University of Georgia Some research projects which do not require large outlays of funds for specialized buildings and equipment are conducted at the senior colleges which offer graduate programs
The research activities within the System are supported by state funds appropriated to the University System for allocation to the institutions and by extramural funds derived primarily from contracts and grants awarded by agencies of the federal government foundations and private business and industry State funds are expended during the year for which the allocations are made The extramural support committed during any single year often is expended over a period of two or more years
During the 197172 Fiscal Year alone more than 458 million was committed to support the research at the four principal researchperforming institutions Approximately 56 percent of this support was received from extramural sources However during the last five years extramural support commitments increased only 255 percent while state support increased 1186 percent
The deceleration in the rate of growth during the last five years of research support from extramural sources reflected a cutback in federal funds available for research at institutions of higher education throughout the nation Therefore in the last several years the researchperforming institutions of the University System have increased efforts to obtain from both inside and outside the state new extramural support from nonfederal sources
A large part of the research within the University System is directly related to improving the economic and human welfare of the people of Georgia
Among recent research projects designed to be of particular benefit to Georgians are the development of a process for converting peanut hulls to charcoal by the Engineering Experiment Station at the Georgia Institute of Technology the development of a State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan for Georgia by the Bureau of Business and Economic Research at Georgia State University the continuation of research on sickle cell anemia a disease uncommonly prevalent in Georgia by the Medical College of Georgia and the continuation of research in animal diseases
by the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Georgia
PUBLIC SERVICES
The public service programs within the University System were markedly expanded during the last decade The present programs reflect the Systems high degree of awareness of the need for more extensive and more diverse forms of higher education than are provided in the classrooms and laboratories of the traditional campus settings
Public service programs are conducted by all of the types of institutions the universities the senior colleges and the junior colleges and by the institutionrelated agencies
During the 197172 Academic Year more than 5000 conferences seminars short courses workshops institutes exhibits demonstrations and other public service programs were presented by the institutions and institutionrelated agencies of the University System
Public service programs typically are designed for people who seek education cultural enrichment and other assistance apart from the regular academic curricula of the universities and colleges They are basically noncredit programs which are offered during the evening hours on Saturdays and at other times convenient to participants In addition personnel of the institutions and institution related agencies are available to prepare special reports conduct specifically oriented studies and provide consultations for individual businessmen industrial or business enterprises farmers farming organizations government agencies and other individuals and economic segments of the states population
The Systems educational television station WGTV operated by the University of Georgia also programs its offerings to provide a variety of educational and cultural enrichment for the benefit of various segments of the states population
In developing public service programs University System personnel are often aided by specialists from outside the

The System Summary
System Many public service programs are cosponsored by various professional business industrial governmental and social organizations
Public service activities range from that which is necessary to present a cultural enrichment seminar of one hour or a few hours in duration to that which is involved in conducting a community development project that may extend for a period of several years The range of possible subjects for public service programs is as large as the range of resources of the University System including instructional and research materials physical facilities and personnel
Each public service program is developed with the most recent information available on the programs topic Thus many of the findings of the Systems research activities are disseminated through public service activities
The public service programs of the University System are therefore the Systems method of extending the instruction offered to the proportionately small population of college students with the help of an even smaller number of teachers and researchers to the entire population of Georgia
PHYSICAL PLANT FACILITIES
The expansion of physical plant facilities within the University System during the last decade has facilitated the growth and improvement of the instructional research and public service programs of the universities and colleges of the System
Since January 1962 the Board of Regents has authorized approximately 350 construction projects costing approximately 412 million The majority of these projects have been completed and are in use approximately 38 projects
are under construction and approximately 55 projects are in various stages of planning and study Two of the projects under construction in the spring of 1973 were the complete physical plants for two new junior colleges which are scheduled to open for enrollment in the 1973 fall quarter
The projects completed during the last decade include facilities for establishing eight new junior colleges and the remodeling of facilities of a former private institution for the establishment of a University System junior college In addition during that period construction projects were completed to modernize and expand the physical plants of all 19 institutions in existence prior to September 1962
The majority of physical plant facilities constructed within the University System during the last decade were financed by the Board of Regents with bond funds obtained through the Georgia Education Authority University and amortized on a longterm basis with annual lease rental payments provided by state appropriations However additional funds for construction were derived from federal grants and other sources
Expansion of campus land areas has also occurred during the last ten years at several institutions
Master plans for the development of physical plant facilities of the campuses throughout the University System have been formulated and adopted since 1964 These plans are being implemented as funds become available Consideration has been given to projected enrollments utilization of existing facilities locations of newly projected facilities student pedestrian and automotive traffic patterns adequate parking areas and landscape planning Revisions in the master plans are made as required to reflect the most current physical plant needs of the 28 University System institutions

Integration Plans Adopted by Board of Regents
Two plans to bring about increased racial integration at colleges and universities of the University System of Georgia were approved by the Board of Regents in June
A plan applying to all of the junior colleges senior colleges and universities in the System was adopted in response to a May 19 1973 request from the US Department of Health Education and Welfare
A plan applying especially to Fort Valley State College was adopted to comply with an order from Judge Wilbur D Owens Jr of the US District Court for the Middle District of Georgia Macon
SYSTEMWIDE PLAN
The Systemwide integration plan authorized by the Board of Regents at a special meeting called expressly for that purpose on June 6 was submitted to the US Department of Health Education and Welfare on June 11
In an introduction in the plan report Chancellor George L Simpson Jr said All materials submitted in this document are prefaced by the specific observation that the University System of Georgia is neither now nor has been in recent years operated in a manner discriminatory toward any minority group
The plan sets forth proposals to extend present integration efforts in the University System by increasing minority student enrollment and minority faculty employment at both predominantly white institutions and predominantly black institutions
The proposals are based primarily on commitments to initiate voluntary faculty exchanges student financial aid from private sources new academic programs expanded developmental remedial programs and campus improvements
The plan report states The major thrust of future activities should center around an intensification of those approaches which have been developed and whose effectiveness has been confirmed
According to the plan report
The number of minority faculty members in the University System increased from 15 6 percent of the total of 25 in 1965 to 92 18 percent of the total of 5210 in 1969 and to 319 51 percent of the total of 6299 in 1972

NEW ACADEMIC OFFERINGS AUTHORIZED FOR 12 UNITS
The implementation of new degrees and majors for twelve institutions of the University System the change in a degree designation at Georgia College and other actions affecting academic units at Georgia State University the Medical College of Georgia and Floyd Junior College were approved by the Board of Regents at the June 20 meeting
Georgia Institute of Technology Albany State College
Georgia Institute of Technology received approval to offer a cooperative 32 or dualdegree program with Albany State College which will become effective in the 1973 fall quarter
This new dualdegree program will be similar to established programs which Georgia Tech has been operating with five University System institutions including Armstrong State College Columbus College North Georgia College West Georgia College and the University of Georgia It will also be similar to dualdegree programs authorized by the Regents in May to be established in the 1973 fall quarter between Georgia Tech and Georgia College Georgia Southwestern College and Valdosta State College Such programs are also operated between Georgia Tech and the Atlanta University Center colleges and approximately 50 other colleges in the United States
The requirements as outlined to the Regents for completing this new dualdegree program stipulate that a student must

SYSTEMWIDE SPECIAL STUDIES
A Special Studies Program designed to identify and assist academically deficient applicants for admission to University System of Georgia colleges and universities was ratified by the Board of Regents at the June 20 meeting
This program will establish for the first time a standard minimum score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test SAT of the College Entrance Examination Board that is required for any applicant to be admitted without special testing to regular collegecredit work at any unit of the University System
The Special Studies Program is scheduled to be implemented throughout the University System in the 1974 fall quarter It was described to the Board of Regents by Chancellor George
L Simpson Jr as the heart of a plan requested by the US Department of Health Education and Welfare HEW in May 1973 to achieve full racial integration of the University System It was included in the plan submitted to HEW on June 11 in conformity with guidelines for the plan adopted by the Board of Regents at a special meeting on June 6
The principal features and objectives of the Special Studies Program were described to the Regents in Chancellor Simpsons proposal as follows
The basic objective of efforts to expand programs for poorly prepared students will be the establishment of a University Systemwide minimum standard Each institution will be free to set any higher standard which it feels to be desirable
The fundamental step is the tentative identification of poorly prepared students prior to their admission to the college It is proposed that all prospective students with a combined Scholastic Aptitude Test SAT score of 650 or less be notified that they will be required to take a battery of tests derived from the Comparative Guidance and Placement Program of the College Entrance Examination Board for the purpose of specific placement either in developmental courses within the program of Special Studies or in regular collegelevel work
Students assigned to the program of Special Studies will pursue developmental programs of study in the areas of language arts reading or mathematics No collegelevel credit will be earned by Special Studies activities however institutional credit will be awarded A student admitted to the Special Studies category will not be permitted to take credit courses which require the content of the Special Studies Program as a prerequisite
A students progress will be assessed periodically throughout the year He may exit the Special Studies Program at any time he exhibits predetermined levels of satisfactory performance A student failing to satisfactorily exit the program within one year may be asked to withdraw
Academic and financial aid counseling will be incorporated as an integral part of the program of Special Studies activities
Procedures for exiting Special Studies Programs will be standardized throughout the University System Selected units from the Comparative Guidance and Placement Program test battery will be used for the purpose of identifying minimal satisfactory levels of performance
PROGRAM VOTED FOR 1974
It must be emphasized that the 650 SAT score is a base figure set for overall System purposes Each institution may set its own standards for remedial work above that figure
To avoid confusion it ought to be said that the 650 S T figure is not a standard for admission Each institution will continue its own admission practices using high school gra es and other factors as well as the SAT
This proposal for the Special Studies Program sim ly says that
1 Any student scoring 650 or less on the SAT will not be admitted initially to regular standing
2 The student will then take other tests designed to id ntify the problem or to show that the student is qualified for regular standing
3 The student will be given appropriate remedial work
4 The student will leave the Special Studies category when competence is demonstrated by Systemwide tests
It is important to note that more than one test will be used in determining if a student is in need of remedial work T iis is done because it is recognized that one test may not accurately assess a students actual ability and knowledge and the process thus has increased validity if several sources of information are used
It would be wrong to take from the preceding discussion that there is indicated any decline in quality of public school education Many factors are involved
In earlier years when only a small proportion of high school graduates went to college we were dealing with a fairly select group of students whose backgrounds and whose motivations from the first grade on directed them to college and to those things that were necessary to enter college The widening of the base has brought into play large numbers of young people who decades ago did not go to college We simply have no real measurement of what their adequacy would have been at that time
In 197172 in the University System 134 percent of the entering freshman students scored less than 650 on the SAT 201 percent scored less than 700 and 278 percent scored less than 750
In the 1972 fall quarter at University System institutions nearly 6000 students were taking one or more developmental remedial courses
Remedial programs for academically deficient applicants for college admission have been developed throughout the University System in recent years

creased from 454 9 percent of the total of 52364 in 1965 to 2305 29 percent of the total of 83281 in 1969 and to 6692 63 percent of the total of 105892 in 1972
Faculty Exchanges
The proposed faculty exchange program would be voluntary on a Systemwide basis with unspecified salary supplementations for participants It would become effective in the 1973 fall quarter
The objective of the exchange program would be to attract additional white faculty members from predominantly white institutions into predominantly black institutions and black faculty members from predominantly black institutions into predominantly white institutions
While the three predominantly black institutions Fort Valley State College Albany State College and Savannah State Collegemay exchange faculty members with any institutions in the University System it is anticipated that each of them will have the most extensive exchange with the predominantly white institutions in its immediate geographic area
The plan report outlines projected results of programs whereby Fort Valley State College would exchange faculty members with nearby Gordon Junior College Macon Junior College and Middle Georgia College Albany State College would exchange faculty members with nearby Georgia Southwestern College Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College and Albany Junior College and Savannah State College would exchange faculty members with nearby Armstrong State College and Georgia Southern College
The report includes an estimate that five percent of the faculties of Fort Valley State College Albany State College and Savannah State College might be involved during an initial trial period of such a faculty exchange program It further indicates that after the first three years of the exchange program a maximum participation of 1015 percent might be expected Exchanges involving in excess of 1015 percent of the black faculty members of Fort Valley State College Albany State College and Savannah State College would present serious complications in the operation of the academic programs of these institutions the plan report indicates
The difficulties experienced in recruiting minority faculty members by University System institutions was described Large numbers of minority faculty have been interviewed and a great many more bona fide offers have been tendered than accepted the plan report indicates Specifically the supply of qualified black faculty members remains short and many of these prefer predominantly black schools and many wbte faculty members do not elect to go to predominantly black schools
The plan report indicates that all University System institutions will diligently pursue all established procedures for the recruitment of black faculty members in the years ahead A it indicates special attention will be given to an inSyster program of blackfaculty development
Financial Aid
he proposed financial aid for students would be sought fro n private sources
Such aid would be offered for the first time during the 197374 Fiscal Year under procedures whereby pairs of students one black and one white would be given equal amounts of money to be used to attend the same institution This program is expected to increase minority student enrollment according to the plan report under the concept that increased presence of a minority component on a campus may lead to further voluntary enrollment by members of that race
The firstyear objective of the private financial aid program will be to support 20 students 10 blacks 10 whites per institution This is estimated to require an initial fund of 15000 per institution or a projected maximum cost per student of 750 For the subsequent four years the objective is to provide such assistance for ten pairs of additional students per year
Developmental Education
The use of developmental remedial education in connection with the increased efforts toward integration will involve the implementation of a Special Studies Program
The Special Studies Program which will go into operation at all institutions of the University System in the 1974 fall quarter is designed to identify and assist academically deficient applicants for collegecredit admission
The Special Studies Program formalizes and expands remedial programs that have been offered in diverse forms by institutions throughout the University System for the last several years Its implementation also will add a new feature All prospective entering freshman students with a combined score of 650 or less on the Scholastic Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination Board will be required to take special tests to determine their placement either in developmental remedial work for which no collegelevel credit will be awarded or in regular collegelevel work
New Programs
The proposal to use new programs as a means of increasing integration of student bodies places first priority on cooperative programs
These programs while not limited to cooperative efforts between institutions of different racial predominances have proved to be highly effective in efforts to increase integration within the University System according to the plan report
Cited as examples of how the cooperative programs have increased integration are such offerings at two University System senior colleges in Savannah Armstrong State College and Savannah State College
At any particular instant of time during the academic day the report indicates in excess of 11 percent of the students on the Savannah State College campus are white
All graduatelevel programs of Armstrong State and Savannah State as well as several undergraduatelevel programs of both institutions are jointly offered
Of the value of using new programs other than cooperative programsto increase integration the report stated Exploitation of this approach will be difficult since there are no clearly established patterns which indicate that programs of specific types are more attractive to one race than to another

Integration Continued from Page 3
Also additional new programs are not anticipated to result in themselves in a substantial modification of student enrollment patterns since a significant breadth of program is already available in the various University System institutions
Campus Improvements
The proposed campus improvements would involve the construction of new facilities and the rehabilitation of existing facilities on campuses and the obtaining of better approaches to the campuses
The plan for campus improvements relates primarily to the three predominantly black institutions
These three institutions have been awarded new buildings in recent years in a manner consistent with all fouryear colleges of the University System with space per student being the primary measure according to the report However because the three predominantly black schools have had slow rates of growth during a period of great growth throughout the System and because they are relatively old the impact of the new buildings has been less than on most campuses of the System
If as appears there is now a decline in the rate of growth of the System it will be possible to add additional new buildings to these campuses
The report indicated that in recent years 41 major additional structures with construction costs aggregating 26 million have been authorized for the three predominantly black institutions and physical plant rehabilitation funds totaling 1500000 have been nearly equally divided among these institutions
Future buildings already scheduled for these institutions according to the report include for Fort Valley State College an infirmary building and a library building under construction and a classroom building in design for Albany State College a classroom building a library building and a field house in design and for Savannah State College a classroom building in design
Special attention will be devoted to recommending and supporting the improvement of the approaches to the three predominantly black institutions according to the report
This must be done in cooperation with local communities and governmental units with state agencies such as the Department of Transportation and with federal agencies the report indicates
Recruitment Procedures
Several special recruitment procedures to be used in increasing integration of student bodies at the University System institutions are listed in the plan These include increased emphasis on direct contact with the families of potential students increased involvement of minority students and faculty members in the recruitment process and continued use of recruitment teams involving both black and white recruiters
FORT VALLEY PLAN
The plan designed especially for Fort Valley State College was approved by the Board of Regents at the regular meeting on June 20
It includes proposals to initiate voluntary faculty exchanges
student financial aid from private sources an expanded developmental remedial program administrative structure changes new academic programs and campus improvements
A large percentage of the plan for Fort Valley was derived from the Systemwide integration plan authorized by he Board of Regents on June 6 at the request of the US Department of Health Education and Welfare HEW and presented to HEW on June 11
Faculty Exchanges
The proposal for faculty exchanges is the same in this plan as in the plan of Systemwide application submitted to HEW It provides for the voluntary transfer beginning in the 1973 fall quarter of minority white faculty members to Fort Valley State College a predominantly black institution from predominantly white institutions in the University System and the transfer of majority black faculty members from Fort Valley State to predominantly white institutions in the System
Salary supplementation of unspecified amounts would be paid to faculty members volunteering to participate in the exchange program
Financial Aid
The proposal for financial aid for students is the same in the plan for Fort Valley State College as in the plan of Systemwide application
It is anticipated that money to extend this aid will be derived from private sources with first efforts being made to raise it in the Fort Valley area The goal is to provide 750 per student for 20 recipients the first year 197374 and to increase the number of recipients by 20 in each of the subsequent years
The money would be awarded to pairs one black one white of students at Fort Valley State College in all instances with each recipient being awarded an equal share
A substantial amount of the 15000 required for financing the 20 stipends planned for the first year at Fort Valley State College is already pledged according to the plan filed with the federal court
Developmental Program
The proposal for providing an expanded developmental remedial program through a Special Studies Program is the same in this plan as in the Systemwide plan The program would be put into effect in the 1974 fall quarter
The Special Studies Program is designed to identify and assist students who cannot meet minimum academic requirements for admission to regular collegecredit work without remedial preparation It also establishes for the first time a standard minimum combined score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test SAT of the College Entrance Examination Board which an applicant must make in order to be admitted without further testing or remedial study to any institution in the University System
Under this new program all prospective entering freshman students with a combined score of 650 or less on the SAT will be required to undergo special testing to determine their placement either in developmental remedial work for which no regular college credit will be given or in regular collegecredit work

The System Summary
Administrative Structure Changes
The proposal to initiate administrative structure changes stipulates that at Fort Valley State College there are to be white administrators in six major positions associate dean of the faculty codirector of the Lower Division three department chairmen and a staff member in the Admissions Office
Fort Valley State College administrators need qualified relief in the conduct of both policymaking functions and daytoday activities the plan document indicated This need will grow in importance with the initiation of new procedures required in the operation of developmental programs which were recently authorized for implementation throughout the University System
The plan document added
Fundamental to increased integration of all units of the University System will be the incorporation of minority administrators in key positions within the line structure of the organization Realization of this objective will take on varied forms in the several institutions of the University System depending upon specific local circumstances and internal management trends
New Academic Programs
The proposal on new academic programs emphasizes cooperative programs involving joint offerings by Fort Valley State College and several predominantly white institutions
In the 1973 fall quarter
The University of Georgia would establish a resident center at Fort Valley State College to offer fifthyear programs in early childhood education special education and librarymedia education and a sixthyear program in elementary education
This center would in the beginning be under the complete supervision of the University of Georgia with students enrolled in the University and with credit being recorded in the records of the University As the Fort Valley State College resources develop the plan anticipates an orderly transition of responsibility for designated programs will be made between the University and Fort Valley
Fort Valley State College would continue full responsibility for the administration of graduate work in guidance and counseling and in elementary education Additional faculty planning and evaluation would be provided by the University of Georgia
1 iforts would be made to expand the guidance and counseling program to include specialized work in rehabilitation counseling The Georgia Department of Fluman Resources would be asked to provide support for the rehabilitation counseling activity
The University of Georgia would be requested to provide advice and faculty support for the development of a bachelors level program in special education at Fort Valley State College
Fort Valley State College would develop a dualdegree program in engineering with the Georgia Institute of Technology
The Fort Valley State College de facto preveterinary medicine program with the University of Georgia would be formally structured
The Fort Valley State College de facto premedicine program with the Medical College of Georgia would be formally structured
The first twoyear associate degree programs at Fort Valley State College would be initiated These programs would be in the fields of agribusiness technology criminal justice and recreation
Other programs at both twoyear and fouryear levels are listed as possible additions without designated implementation periods
In the twoyear category are agricultural equipment technology ornamental horticulture accounting data processing secretarial science fashion merchandising food science technology drafting and design technology civil technology electrical technology and industrial technology
Fouryear programs listed for initiation at appropriate future times are psychology political science criminal justice and health and recreation
Special efforts will be made the plan document indicated to increase enrollment in the Colleges fouryear program in electronic technology
Campus Improvements
The proposal for campus improvements commits the Board of Regents to supply resources available to it to finance oncampus new construction and rehabilitation of physical plant facilities It also pledges the Board to recommend and encourage the improvement by the community and by local state and federal government agencies of olfcampus areas vital to proper campus access and attractiveness
During the last 10 years according to the plan document the Board of Regents has constructed 11 of the existing 49 buildings on the Fort Valley State College campus and has currently under construction three additional buildings Additional spending of 569955 for renovation and rehabilitation of existing facilities also was cited
Additional facilities envisioned for future development of the institution are a new administration building a new academic building and new dormitory accommodations in the event such housing is justified by increased enrollment and to replace obsolete dormitories Also according to the plan the Board will continue the renovation of existing facilities and the development of utility systems that support the campus
The document also indicates that the Board of Regents will acquire as soon as state funds are available a block of property that juts into the west boundary of the campus This land would be used according to the plan document as sites for new buildings in the academic area
Offcampus improvements for which state funds cannot be spent by the Board of Regents but for which the Regents support was indicated in the plan document include a bypass road around the eastern part of the city of Fort Valley and the acquisition and demolition of substandard housing along a street adjacent to the campus
Both of these projects according to the plan document emanated from the government of the city of Fort Valley

The establishment of an Academic Common Market was endorsed in principle by the Board of Regents at the September 1112 meeting The Regents in taking such action also directed the staff of the Board to study the practicality of the Academic Common Market program as it would affect the academic programs of the University System of Georgia
The Academic Common Market program was endorsed by the Southern Regional Education Board made up of representatives of Georgia and 13 other states at a meeting in June 1973
The Common Market program calls for participating states to share specified academic programs through an exchange of students across state borders It is designed to assist in eliminating unnecessary duplication of programs and to increase availability and access to programs particularly programs of a specialized nature
As endorsed by the Southern Regional Education Board the Academic Common Market venture initially would include only graduate programs The programs to be included in the Common Market offerings would be determined by participating institutions

Each Charbonnier Professorship will carry an award of
515000 per year including 10000 in salary supplement and
55000 in position support to provide for such items as equipment supplies travel and secretarial assistance These Pr fessorships would usually be held continuously so long as the individual remained highly productive in his work at the Medical College of Georgia the Regents were told in the request for their action
Nominations for Charbonnier Professorships will be re
ceived from departmental chairmen at the Medical College and will be reviewed by the dean provost and president at the College before final recommendations are submitted to the Board of Regents for approval

The present departmental majors are more restrictive and more concentrated around a special class of organisms than will be the new major in Biology which will provide education in the broad areas of biology according to the statement of information
The new major which will not require any additional courses faculty members or operating funds in the immediate future will attract more students to the total program and will provide better training for those planning to become high school biology teachers the statement also indicated

Bids were received on October 5 1973 and in each case the highest bid was in excess of the average of three appraisals
Funds derived from the sale of this land will permit purchase of property which is more remote from the expanded area of Griffin and therefore more useful to the Georgia Experiment Station according to the request for the January action that authorized the sale
Authorization was given for the application to the Georgia State Agency for Surplus Property by the University of Georgia for the acquisition of 1331 acres of surplus land in Sumter County Georgia for use by the Coastal Plain Experiment Station of the Universitys College of Agriculture

Two of the four new Departments LargeAnimal Medicine and SmallAnimal Medicine formerly were part of the Department of Medicine and Surgery The superseded arran ment of having smallanimal medicine and largeanimal medicine combined led to unnecessary organizational pr lems commonfunding difficulties and a tendency towa s underemphasis of either smallanimal medicine or lar animal medicine according to information presented to the Regents
The other two new Departments Avian Medicine and Parasitology have been operated unofficially for two years and have been proven to be functionally desirable within the College the Regents were told
Establishment of a Veterinary Medical Experiment Station will provide a focus for domestic animal disease research according to the request for the Regents action This would in no way diminish the existing program of support from human healthrelated agencies but would serve to bring the total research effort of the veterinary college in more desirable balance the Regents were told

He cited figures from the US Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics for the period between 1970 and 1974 indicating that the annual increases in the cost of living totaled 275 percent and that the annual increases in the pay of University System employees totaled 184 percent The annual declines in real purchasing power during the same period he noted totaled 91 percent
The Chancellors statement continued
Second without a pay raise so much of value in the University System can be lost The great progress in the System o recent years has been in people We have been more compi itive in employing people than ever before Because of the gr wth during the 1960s we have had many new positions to recruit for We are in a period when many of our younger pt pie are becoming well established in the institutions and therefore are especially valuable to us and to others In one

An agreement providing for the beginning of contractual food service at West Georgia College was approved by the Board of Regents at the December 13 meeting
The agreement will be between the Board of Regents on behalf of West Georgia College and the Slater Corporation It was authorized to provide for the Slater Corporation a subsidiary of ARA Services Inc to operate all food services on the West Georgia College campus effective at the opening of the 1974 winter quarter The agreement may be terminated by either party by 60day written notice
The procedure followed in obtaining the contractual food service was outlined to the Regents as follows
Four food service firms were requested to submit proposals to West Georgia College
Two of the proposals envision a management fee type arrangement in which the contractor assumes no financial risk This type arrangement is not recommended for the West Georgia College situation
The other two proposals are on a different basis in that the contractor assumes the responsibility for any financial loss in excess of the minor loss projected in each of the proposals
All proposals were based on the College projection of student participation in the food service program
The loss in food service operations last year at West Georgia College was 64000 according to the request for the Regents approval of the contractual food service The annual projected loss under the newly authorized contractual agreement is less than 3000 and a breakeven basis is certainly attainable the request also indicated
The Slater Corporation submitted the proposal with th lowest projected cost to West Georgia College the Regen were told
The declining resident enrollment at West Georgia h produced a financial crisis in its auxiliary enterprises oper tions according to a statement to the Regents supportin the agreement for the contractual food service A declinir dormitory occupancy rate has a marked effect on food servic revenues This is accompanied by the rising cost of raw foot This combination produces a management problem of such magnitude that the employment of a recognized food servic management firm is recommended
The Board of Regents in November approved the idea of utilizing professional food service management firms on contractual basis to provide food service on campuses of i stitutions of the University System
A staffprepared statement for the Regents which accompanied the request for the December action indicated that there will not be a blanket recommendation for switching to contractual food service arrangements throughout the Un versity System The action recommended here does not imply that all future institutional requests to enter food service contracts will result in a recommended action to that effect the statement indicated Contract food service is one way to handle food service management problems but is not always the best way Each case must be decided on its own merit Georgia State University has used the contract method of providing food service for many years That method has been effective and helpful at Georgia State the Regents were told at the November meeting
Arsenal Commandants Remembered in Names of Buildings
Official names for three facilities at Augusta College were approved by the Board of Regents at the December 13 meeting
The names were proposed and recommended by the President and the faculty of Augusta College
The name Payne Hall was approved for the Administration Building in memory of Colonel Matthew Mountjoy Payne
Colonel Payne served from 1819 to 1827 as the first Commandant of the U S Arsenal in Augusta He was responsible for relocating the Arsenal on the site now occupied by Augusta College He died in 1862
The name Rains Hall was approved for the Alumni Building in memory of Colonel George Washington Rains
Colonel Rains served as Commandant of the U S Arsenal from 1862 to 1865 After the Civil War he served as professor of Chemistry at the Medical College of Georgia and served on the faculty of that institution until 1894 He died in 1898
The name Fanning Hall was approved for the Business Operations Building in memory of Colonel Alexander C W Fanning
Colonel Fanning served as Commandant of the U S Arsenal
from 1827 to 1832 It was during his term as Commandant that the buildings of the relocated Arsenal were completed and occupied He died in 1846
Augusta College is utilizing some buildings that were a part of the Arsenal authorized by President George Washington and constructed during the administration of President John Quincy Adams the Regents were told Therefore it appears desirable that certain College buildings be named in honor of distinguished men who served at the Arsenal in its early days
